HELP ADVANCE ANTI-DOPING RESEARCH

Montreal, 17 December 2019

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is pleased to issue a Call for Proposals for 2020 Scientific Research Grants.

Science is key to driving advances in anti-doping. Innovative, fact-based research helps the anti-doping community identify new trends in doping, new drugs, new delivery mechanisms and new methods of detection.

Since 2001, WADA has committed more than US$ 80 million to helping researchers around the world develop breakthroughs in anti-doping science. These grants are critical because they increase the volume of research dedicated to developing new and improved detection methods for performance-enhancing substances and methods as well as attract the best minds to this cause.

Scientists interested in submitting research projects are invited to submit their applications by 1 March 2020 (24:00 GMT).
